Tonto Verde Golf Club offers two 18-hole courses designed by David Graham and Gary Panks, The Peaks Course and Ranch Course. Even with its water areas, the club retains the integrity of the surrounding landscape.
The Peaks Course gets its name from Four Peaks Mountain, which lies directly to the east. The Peaks is shorter and narrower than the Ranch Course with tighter landing areas off the tee. The greens are smaller, undulating and fast!
The Ranch Course name came from the Box Bar Ranch, a working ranch that has been integral to the area since the early 1900s. There are stunning mountain views, wider fairways and larger greens with subtle undulations.
With 5 tee combinations on each course, golfers of every skill level can enjoy a good challenge and a fun day of golf. Both courses are walker-friendly.
Tonto Verde Golf Club is debt-free with strong reserves. After a clubhouse renovation in 2010, Golf Inc. rated Tonto Verde’s renovation as #1 across the nation.
